NEWS
Ryepress has now opened in the centre of Hastings old town! Situated in the well known Retro shop in Hastings High street this new Print studio and Gallery joins a growing collection of galleries in what is fast becoming East Sussex’s newest centre for the Arts.
With the eponymous Rye press now installed, the studio will soon be featuring periodic etching demonstrations, with a unique opportunity to see the process in action and buy Colin Bailey's limited edition prints of Hastings, Rye and the East Sussex coast straight from the press.
The etching studio will be holding printing demonstrations throughout the summer. Please watch this space for details.

Following the highly successful DO YOU THINK YOUR HARD ENOUGH display in the shop window during Hastings Old Town Carnival week I have decided to give visitors to the Ryepress website an opportunity to pit their wits and guess the clues in the window!
PHOTOGRAPHS
I have recently added a series of photos to the Rye press site - these are images I either do not intend using as paintings or in the case of the black and white photos are short-listed as potential etchings
